This research investigates the main factors (domestic and foreign) affecting inflation rate in Syria. Choosing the factors is based on the analysis of the major economic hypothesis concerning inflation determinants such as: excess purchasing power, cost push inflation, foreign inflation. By using OLS method, we find long run function, and it shows that the excess purchasing power has no significant effect on inflation rate. The error correction model shows that high cost rate has the biggest effect on inflation rate in the short run.

This research studies inflation and its reasons in the Syrian economy using (1990-2010) data, also it studies imported inflation and its reflects on inflation rates, considering that the imported inflation is one of the major drivers of inflation in transitioning economies. We find that the imported inflation has a significant effect on inflation rate, and it leads – beside endogenous factors – to high inflation rates. Hence, there must be coordination among economic policies to achieve the balance between money market and commodities market, in addition to the optimal use of the potential sources, thus less import.
The purpose of this research is to study the determinants of the real exchange rate in Syria during the period 1990 to 2011. We employed Vector Auto Regression (VAR) model to study the long-term relationship between the real exchange rate and the f actors affecting it. Also we applied the Granger causality test to investigate the direction of the relationship between these variables. In addition, the Impulse Response Functions (IRF) and the Variance Decomposition to determine thecontribution of thesedeterminantsin the interpretation ofthe variance oftherealexchangerateof the Syrian pound. Eight possible determinants have been included in the empirical model: Foreign direct investment,realGDPgrowthrate,money supply, government consumption, trade openness,real interest rate, terms of trade, political stability indictor. The variables that have been found to have a long run relationship with the real exchange rate are: theforeign direct investment, real GDP growth rate and trade openness.EspeciallyForeign direct investment and Real GDP growth rate which have the greatest effect on the real exchange rate, while the trade openness had the least effect on the real exchange rate in Syria.Leavingthe other determinants with insignificant effect on real exchange rate in Syria.
This study aims to identify the factors affecting the velocity of money in Syria during the period ( 1990-2010) based on the study and review of the monetary theories, and the analysis of some empirical studies that examined the velocity of money and its relation to macroeconomic variables. In addition to an econometric study focused on the relationship between the velocity of money in its narrow sense (M1) with the rate of inflation, per capita GDP, real exchange rate, financial evolution, interest rate and political instability, using ARDL methodology to test joint integration.
This research tries to go into the demographic reality and analysis of population policy followed in Syria, and study their efficiency and their impact on demographic indicators all and the importance of developing a population policy declared and es poused officially "from all sides, government institutions and people's organizations, civil society organizations and international organizations, and that the main objective of the population policy in Syria to achieve harmonization between population growth and economic and social development to meet the growing needs of the population to education and health services, water, electricity, transportation, unemployment and other needs, which raises the standard of living of the population and provide the level of well-being which included the strategic objectives of population policy areas of population growth and reproductive health and empowerment of women, youth and community participation, employment, education and geographical distribution the urbanization of the population and take advantage of the possibility of opening up the window of demographic, media, and develop an awareness of population issues also included the foundations of population policy and accessories at the legislative level, and the legal and institutional framework of civil government, media and educational, health and economic data, information and updated.

There are many ideas that come to the mind and many questions that keep coming to the mind when it comes to analyzing the phenomenon of using the methods and tools to help in the planning and making appropriate decisions. In this research we tried to display the importance of statistics and the most important methods depending on the number of variables used in this analysis: descriptive statistical indicators in case we had one variable, indexes in case we had two variables, and factor analysis and analysis of variance in case we had several variables. These methods were applied to production of irrigated wheat crop, both types soft and hard, during the period 2000 - 2010 and the factors affecting its production, such as: the cultivated area, yield, fertilizers, water, the average cost and the average price. Then the data were analyzed using the Statistical package SPSS and program Excel. After that, they summarized in two main factors that justify together (86.116%) of the overall variance. The first factor was related to the land and everything related to it through a set of variables, which are: the cultivated area and the need to fertilizers and water., The second factor was the importance of the selling price of the crop per kilogram.
